As an update - last night after I got home, Dax and I had a ton of play time/outdoor exercise, and then he slept with me on the bed all night (with 2 potty breaks) and then I didn't put him back into the crate again until I left this morning and he went in MUCH easier - still a little whimper, but that was all. I think he will do much better with the crate if he's in there less.

Thank you all for your responses!
Your puppy will sleep better when he is allowed to have more play time and he will too tried to get into trouble . And the exercise will help keep his bowel movements working better ..
